Any regional fighter could sell out a stadium but the real test is the U.S. television market; Which is the largest boxing market in the world. Boxing events overseas draw the lion share of their audiences and revenues at their live gates. As opposed to the states where most of the boxing revenue is generated through television; Such as Pay Per View, Closed Circuit Television, or Premium Cable Television like Showtime and HBO. If that's the yardstick, then whether or not he is the money man in division is debatable.
However, one thing is certain he does tend to get a bigger push from the major U.S. networks than other fighters around the 140 lb division.

Originally posted by Own3d View PostHow is it common sense you idiot, Khan was making millions in the UK before he had a fight in America. Purses and TV revenue are rarely released to the public over here, those numbers that have been posted in the past are money he makes from the US not including the UK. Khan is by far a bigger draw that's common sense, that's why it's a common opinion.

Nobody knows, wanna know why?? Because it's not beneficial for is to know..Cause it not what he was making before..

British Pakistani professional boxer, Amir Khan has a net worth of $23 million (£15m) as of May 2012, according to the Sunday Times UK Rich List. The Bolton-born fighter remains the youngest British Olympic boxing medallist, winning silver at Athens in 2004 when he was 17. He won the WBA light-welterweight title aged 22 and spends much of his time in Los Angeles, where he is trained by Freddie Roach and has an apartment. His main business partner is Golden Boy Promotions and he also have a good association with Home Box Office, the prime mover in televising fights. Khan commands more than £1m per fight, plus a share of TV rights. He spent £1m opening the Gloves Community Centre and boxing gym in Bolton.
I am sure it has increased now rather then decrease.
